bullseye Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 actually water is the best way to fill your stomach up. ur stomach is just growling because it is empty. personally, water gets boring after awhile during the day, drop a couple of diet snapples to mix it up.

ovrdose Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 water never did anything for me, doesn't fool my stomach. if im hungry im gonna be hungry no matter how much water i drink. try some nuts, don't go crazy but those actually do work if i wanna get something in before a meal.

dgmodel Posted January 27 Author Report Share Posted January 27 what about apple or orange~!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine09 Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 what about apple or orange~!?k hope this helps! water does nothing except still make you feel hungry and have to pee alot. i drink about 2 gallons a day just to help digestion along. sure it a piece of fruit. if you want eat yogurt. hardly no fat, cottage cheese with fruit great snack, rice cakes with sugar free jelly. i know it sounds funny but it works. i am a fitness trainer. trust me just drinking water will not do it. like someone else said it 5-6 small meals and drink water throughout the day because it will help with digestion. hope this helps! oh i believe you prob. work out which is a plus. good luck!

I just started a new diet....very low carb/high protein. Ive been on it for a week and i already feel some of the effects. In the morning I eat oatmeal and a piece of fruit. Lunch i come home and eat either 2 chicken tenderloins, palomilla (thin steak), or a small piece of skirt steak and either mixed veggies or a sweet potato. Mid afternoon a can of tuna or chicken with a little lemon juice. Dinner about the same as lunch but I also mix in fish and salad. My trainer friend told me today that for snacks i could try eating almonds. One of the lowest in fat content and is good for your skin. Water all day long.I guess my metabolism is pretty high, ive had more energy and im hot now when i used to be soooooo cold in my office.Now if only the damn gym would open up.

dgmodel Posted January 28 Author Report Share Posted January 28 not too bad sounding... whats up with the lemon juice on the tuna does it kill the flavour? (i hate the flavour and smell of that seashit., also sidenote too much lemon and or lemon juice retards the breakdown of fatty foods add some broccoli to offset that...)

Yeah i only put a little bit to kill the flavour but usually i eat the chicken instead of tuna. Either lemon juice or a little bit of homemade greek dressing instead of any mayo. I eat plenty of broccoli though, about 2-3 times a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fineones Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Fructose is sometimes promoted as a suitable sweetener for diabetics and low carbers because it does not require insulin to be used by the cells; thus there is no rise in insulin level. However, it is still a carbohydrate and yields 4 calories per gram, just like any other sugar. Fructose has an added disadvantage - because it doesn't require insulin, it is rapidly absorbed by the liver and converted to glycerol - ultimately leading to increased triglycerides and cholesterol levels.if your going to have fruit do so early in the morning for to get your glycogen levels and metabolism kicking or directly after your workout (hight glycemic fruits =, ie. bannana's) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fineones Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 i understood this much of that there bill nye...english please~!?sorry im still in test taking mode, basically fruit (fructose) is a slow burning carb that gives you a energy spike just like regular table sugar. Fruit is often confused as a good alternative when dieting, IMO its not, it still has thge same amount of cals as any other carb. Also it doesnt spike insulin (which causes it you be used thoughtout the body) so it just stays and gets stored as fat & or cholesterol. SOOOO if you going to have it, have it in the morning and dont go crazy, its fruit not a miracle food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgmodel Posted January 31 Author Report Share Posted January 31 so what do you suggest is a good snack alternative outside of lettuce leaves... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fineones Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 umm fat free jello, baby carrots, pieces of grilled chicken (limited), grapes,( i know its a fruit but you can have a cup of it and have only 2 grms of carbs), caffine (sp? its an appetite suppresent), Diet soda, WATER, WATER, WATER.Theres plenty of new products out with Zero carb and low protien. Youjust gotta find what you like, Spend some time just walking around the grocery store and you find what works for you. I wouldnt worry to much about sodium intake unless your Dr. Says to.
